6 : Dilemma
1445 Words
Nirvana's apartment was a thirty-minute drive from her new hospital and usually, long drives were her favourite, but this time the only thing on her mind was Zachariah Adonis Villin. That chiselled jaw of his, his grey eyes that could make anyone lost in them and oh that smirk of his that pissed her off for every existing reason. Her thoughts were chaotic right now.
“Ugh stop this Nirvana, he’s trouble and you know it” she mentally cursed herself.
“But you know you like it,” her inner thought sneered at her helplessness.
Beep Beep! The sound of a car desperately honking behind her broke her off those deep thoughts.
“THE LIGHTS GREEN YOU i***t!!” the man behind her screamed.
She looked up to see that yes, in fact, the light was green and then started driving again “Stupid Nirvana” she mumbled getting all red. That habit of hers had still not gone away.
After another fifteen minutes, she had already reached her apartment. Nirvana lived in a secured apartment complex but was already thinking about moving because of her new job. She quickly got onto the elevator but as soon as the doors closed the only thing on her mind was Zachariah again. He was literally starting to get on her nerves, literally. The doors dinged after a while and in a flick second, she was rumbling through her bag for her keys to the door and after a minute she finally found it in the corner of her black hole known as a purse. That always happened.
Unlocking the door she entered inside and started removing her shoes to fit into her slippers. She placed her car keys on the table near her and then rushed in for a shower after which, she quickly hopped onto her bed and called it a day, but there was a big problem on her hands right now. Why was she still thinking of her bad boss from work when all she was supposed to do was fall dead due to exhaustion? Shifting her position about a hundred times she finally huffed out in exhaustion. “It is going to be a good day Nirvana! Sleep now.”
Meanwhile, Zachariah lay in his bed with an unintentional smile on his face. He never smiled, but ever since Nirvana had entered, he just could not stop doing that anyhow.
Ring Ringgg
His cell phone buzzed, signifying someone’s call. He quickly accepted it
“Did you get it prepared?” he commanded.
“Yes sir.”
“Good.” He replied before cutting the call. Now all he had to do was make Nirvana a permanent part of his life and she would not ever leave.
“It's going to be a great day tomorrow Dr Delaney,” he smirked before turning off the lights to his room.
BEEP BEEP BEEP!!!!!
The alarm on Nirvana’s bedstand was screaming bloody murder.
“Ugh” she groaned in frustration while reaching out a hand to switch it off. Yes. She was totally not a morning person but duty always called. She quickly freshened up and dressed for work, grabbing a coffee from the fridge. It was already 4:30 and it would take her half an hour to actually reach the hospital. Locking the door, she hurried to her car to get in the elevator, but as soon as she got there she literally could not believe her eyes. Someone had thrashed her car tyres open and there lay her beautiful car in all its glory sitting useless for work.
“s**t!” she let out a short scream.
“Cursing in the morning is not good, Miss Delaney” a voice from behind chimed.
She quickly turned around to find the source of it only to see the one person who she never would have never thought of seeing at this time and at this place. There stood Zachariah Adonis Villin in all his glory with his very usual stoic but sexy face.
“What the hell is wrong with me” she scolded herself.
“I do not find him sexy” she repeated for her thoughts to hear.
“It seems that something unfortunate has occurred, Miss Delaney and it surely happened to be just when you need to go to work.”
“I have my own eyes to see that sir” she gritted back a response, annoyed by the fact that her tyres were slashed and she had met him on top of that.
“What happened to bring you here sir?” she questioned, gritting her teeth on the emphasis of sir.
“I live just fifteen minutes away” he replied, without ever so much giving her car a glance. “Join me, Nirvana for we both know we are headed the same way.”
“No sir I would be fine with a tax-“ but before she could say anything, his bodyguards had already opened the door for and pushed her inside.
“Motherfu-“ she cursed while her thighs touched her boss’s.
“Language Miss Delaney,” he scolded and this caused her to shy away like a little child getting caught for stealing candy.
“You look beautiful today Nirvana as usual,” he told her with his gaze unwavering towards her. Nirvana suddenly felt very self-conscious, “Yes I did put a lot of effort to get up of bed actually.”
Zachariah chuckled at her answer “You never fail to make me smile love” he whispered.
Nirvana thought she heard him speak but then thought against it to ask him to repeat his words. She was already embarrassed as it is.
The whole car ride was silent and she could feel the tension literally piercing through her heart any moment now.
“ I like you Nirvana,” Zachariah said while turning to gaze into her eyes.
“You just make me feel alive you know? And I knew that ever since I saw you so I just want to give you a chance to actually fall in love with me because nevertheless, the end result is going to be the same. You will be mine”
Nirvana right then could not actually believe her ears right now. Her whole body turned cold. “Did he seriously just say what I think he said” Her inner thoughts were literally running and crashing around in panic right now. She quickly broke off from his burning gaze.
“I am a very impatient person love, but for you, I will try my best to wait, but just know this that I will not ever let you go now that I have met you. All these years nobody has ever got me like this ever before.”
Nirvana was so confused but then suddenly she got pissed “Who do you think you are sir? Are you really dumb because we have not even exchanged more than a few sentences throughout the whole time that we have met and now you are spitting stuff like this out of your mouth? Are you cra-” her lips were now stopped from saying another word as she felt his warm lips on her.
That son of a b***h kissed her and she was not happy about it.
“You!- “ she got cut off again when he pulled her closer and whispered in a strained voice.
“As much as I like feisty Nirvana, I also hate defiance, but I think we can work on that, right?”
They were already at the hospital entrance now and this whole fiasco was driving Nirvana mad.
“You are crazy I repeat CRAZY!” Nirvana cried before pushing him back and heading straight for the door and thank heavens it was unlocked because it had not been then that would have been a different story altogether.
Nirvana’s heart was pumping so wild that she was afraid it would go into failure any time soon. Her mind still could not wrap her thoughts around what had just happened. Had he seriously just said those words to her? What did he think of himself!
All of these thoughts were threatening to kill her brain, but for now, she had to run and plan all right.
Zachariah lay still inside his car smiling at the thought of his lips on hers. He was right. There was no way he was ever letting her go.
“Nirvana you won’t know it but I will get into that heart of yours. You don’t know me, love, but you soon will.”
